Getting Into Statway or Quantway

In case you missed the webinar on January 24 (by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching) … institutions can begin a process that may lead to being included in either Statway or Quantway.

Here is the slide from the webinar dealing with ‘getting into Statway or Quantway’:

Just to review … Statway is a two-semester sequence designed for students who place into beginning algebra, which takes them ‘to and thru’ a college-credit statistics course; statistical topics are the focus of the course, with developmental math topics integrated in both semesters.
Quantway is a one-semester course designed for students who would take a ‘non-STEM’ course the next semester; it is also designed for students who place into beginning algebra, with a focus on numerical reasoning, proportional reasoning, algebraic reasoning, and functions & models. After Quantway, students would take a college-credit math course such as quantitative reasoning, statistics, or math for liberal arts.

“Getting into Statway or Quantway” means more than just offering the course; joining a Pathway means being part of the Networked Improvement Community coordinated by the Carnegie Foundation … that is why institutions need to meet the criteria listed above.
